2022 Trike Trip. Just Me and Jan

 Well we left Live Oak 6 days ago and have had mostly all good weather.   I did lose my points with Choice Privileges because of the weather. We had to detour in Missouri and go west instead of north and they wouldn’t cancel my reservation.  That made me mad.    We left our plans and went up into South Dakota to ride Iron Mountain Road and see Mount Rushmore through the tunnels.  That was a beautiful ride.   I remember the first time we found that you could see the Presidents through the tunnels, was so surprised and impressed that someone designed the road like that.  We headed toward Keystone after-going through Nebraska and getting battered by the wind for two days.   Oh how I hate that wind.   We have had some good food along the way, and some beautiful views.   We had one lousy hotel room because the people are actually using the name of Country Inn and Suites in Norfolk Nebraska and it wasn’t the chain but a hometown hotel. Kinda junky.   But all the other stays have been nice.   We made it to Red Lodge Montana today.  We came here before several years ago with another couple and rode Beartooth Pass, which we are riding tomorrow.   I’ll post pics now and hope this works better than it is to.
